Which words in the sentence make up the appositive phrase? Our cats, the ones with the calico fur, are always so playful. A. so playful B. Our cats C. the ones with the calico fur D. are always so playful

Answers

Answer 1
Answer: I believe the answer should be C.  This is because an appositive phrase is a part of the sentence that renames another noun in some way.  So if I say "My lily, the gigantic flower in my backyard, has stopped growing."  then I can look and see that the part saying "the gigantic flower in my backyard" has just rephrased the part "My lily", and the same applies to your sentence.  The part saying "the ones with the calico fur" just restates the part "Our cats".

I hope I helped!  And if you need more information, please tell me, and I'll fix it! :D

In this sentence from Patrick Henry's Speech to the Virginia Convention, what is the meaning of the word "reconciled"? "Have we shown ourselves so unwilling to be reconciled that force must be called to win back our love?"
A. Persecuted
B. Persuaded
C. Restored
D. Controlled

Answers

Answer:

D. Controlled.

Explanation:

In his speech to the Virginia Convention which have now become famously known as the "Give Me Liberty or Give Me Death", Patrick Henry implored on the authorities or delegates of the convention to secede from being under the authority of the British. He points why America needs to go to war against its colonizers, to fight for freedom and government, without the need to be governed by a foreign nation.

In the given passage taken from the speech, he questions whether they (Americans) are restless and uncontrollable that they cannot be organized and work together. He wonders why the use of force is the only way they can be "called" to work together to free their nation from the clutches of the English. The word "reconciled" here means "controlled", which is what Henry thinks is why they need to be forced to work together for their liberty.

The answer is D. Controlled
